iTunes ready to fly into the cloud?

Sources familiar with the matter have told Reuters , the online service iTunes is finally ready for launch . Rumors suggest that Apple has long been to get into the cloud music to offer its customers to store music on its servers and access them from any computer or mobile device.

The idea is not new since it comes from the redemption of Lala, a music streaming service, at the end of 2009 (read: Lala: Apple sings a new tune ). Talks between Apple and the majors have taken much longer than expected, was expected in late summer 2010 , but such a service has still not shown. Meanwhile, Amazon has unsheathed his first Player Cloud (read: Amazon Cloud Player: iOS private cloud ), while Google, which has launched a similar offer, would be stalled.
